Original build scope
What to build first
C01 volume, C02 full PTT and C03 front mechanism fixtures; C04/C05 rear lettering/bond comparison and C06 cloth sample. Then one full unpowered fit enclosure. Defer cosmetic tooling/metal trim commitment until the antenna layout is reviewed.
Confirm before the affected stage
- Before mechanism acceptance
- Fixture results, spring lot/force data, machined datum capability, thread tests and measured end-press behavior.Rapid with Walkie One mechanical
- Before full finish
- Skin casting/bond map, rear fill, cloth grade/W process and matched metal/skin samples.Rapid proposes; Walkie One design approves
- Before cosmetic tooling or powered build
- Actual conductor map, antenna placement/clearance, mated connector/coax and harness. The retained antenna location is a packaging reference, not RF approval.Walkie One electrical/RF
